<p>Hello everyone, I've adapted the website as part of the new metadata collection and changed some styling. I would be happy about any feedback in regard to these changes. A preview can be found <a href="https://xfrednet.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html">here</a>. <span aria-label="upside down" class="emoji emoji-1f643" role="img" title="upside down">:upside_down:</span></p>

<p>This looks great, I really like it. Especially the (?) link to the documentation what the applicability levels mean. And that the links linking back to the Clippy repo are placed in tabs below the lint documentation.</p>

<p>Good improvements!</p>
<p>Here's some ideas I came up with, with a screenshot. Just my taste.</p>
<ul>
<li>Make the the heading box white and the page background gray instead (not really related to your changes)</li>
<li>Remove all section borders inside the lint box</li>
<li>Don't have a center-aligned link, move to the right with a small gap</li>
<li>Name the links "Related Issues" and "View Source"<br>

<p>I was contemplating on doing this as well. However, I found it to be a bit bland without the separation. What does the rest think about this?

<p>About deprecated: I thing Cam's style suggestion is good. I also suggested to <strong>not</strong> display deprecated lints by default.</p>
<p>About center-aligned links: I personally really like the 3 "tabs" below the lint doc with the different links. This also makes it look nice on mobile. I'd also be good with moving them to the corner, so I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other.</p>

<p>I would leave the headline background as it is if that's okay. I remember testing other combinations in the theme PR, but this fit the best as it also separated the headline from the documentation.</p>

<p>I've tired to apply a different opacity to it, as that would be simple then changing the colors and goes with the spirit of looking dead: <a href="/user_uploads/4715/L7HdtTIHO8Osp-_u8fWT1oYU/image.png">image.png</a> and it also works with all color themes. What do you think about it?</p>

<p><span class="user-mention silent" data-user-id="360405">Cameron Steffen</span> suggested <a href="#narrow/stream/257328-clippy/topic/Styling.20feedback.20for.20Clippy's.20lint.20list/near/240075071">here</a> to remove the colons from the headlines (which I'm in favor of). I was thinking that this also gives us the prime opportunity to change the headline text completely <strong>if we would want to</strong>. These are some changes that I thought of:</p>
<ol>
<li>Rename <code>What it does:</code> -&gt; <code>Functionality</code></li>
<li>Rename <code>Why is this bad?</code> -&gt; <code>Reasoning</code></li>
<li>Only add the <code>Known problems:</code> section, when the lint actually has known problems.</li>
</ol>
<p>What are your thoughts about it? <span aria-label="upside down" class="emoji emoji-1f643" role="img" title="upside down">:upside_down:</span>  These changes would align us a bit more with the rustc documentation.

<p>I was comparing with the <a href="https://dart-lang.github.io/linter/lints/index.html">Dart equivalent to our lints page</a>. They start each lint doc with a <strong>DO</strong> or <strong>DO NOT</strong> statement. I like the directness of this and I like the option of describing what the coder <em>should</em> do (DO) for some lints, since this is easier to describe in some cases.</p>
<p>So now I'm wondering if we should stick with <code>What it does</code> since it allows us that flexibility. <code>What it lints</code> forces us to always describe what <em>not</em> to do. Although, if we are already following that pattern, we can easily stick with it. Actually, this pairs with our lint naming convention - we prefer naming lints as describing what you <em>should not</em> do so that it makes sense with <code>warn(bad_thing)</code>.</p>
<p>TL;DR I just talked in a circle.</p>
